Download Your Facebook Data and Upload to Flote!

Facebook users live under the constant threat of having their digital lives including treasured memories and social connections wiped out of existence. In the wake of the FB update to its terms of service as of October 1, 2020, we've seen a good number of user accounts disabled under the guise of vague "community standards" violations.

Flote would like to invite you to avoid the destruction of your digital history by allowing you to uploaded your Facebook posts, videos, and images to Flote. Here is a quick how-to that will ensure you don't lose access to the memories that matter most to you.

Step 2. Click the arrow in the top right corner of your browser and choose “Settings & Privacy” and then “Settings.”

Step 3. From the Settings page, choose “Your Facebook Information” from the left navigation menu.

Step 4. Choose “Download Your Information”

Step 5. On the "Download Your Information" page you can request a copy of your data. Be sure to choose the JSON file format. Choose a date range and media quality.

Step 6. Deselect all and choose the first two options for download, "Posts" and "Photos and Videos."

Step 7. Once you’ve made your selections, click the create button. Facebook will process your request and notify you when your file is complete. You can find the file in the Available Copies tab. Your file expires within a few days. Be sure to keep a record of the date and time of your request.
